We are currently having discussions about FP 2.6 (Dos and Windows) and the Y2000. We have mutiple programs written in Fox that "the powers to be" say needs to be updated to VFP 5.0 to Y2000 compliant. I don't think going to VFP 5.0 will make the program Y2000 comp. We have expanded all screen input fields to show centuries with some error checking. We have also added a slide date routine (specs taken from IBM whitepaper) to deal with legacy data (We read info from a mainframe, no century stored). I know that using the date() function could cause problems but we do not use it for any calculations. What I would like to know is if there is a source that explains any short comings of FP 2.6 or VFP 5.0 and the Y2000, or any othe gotchas that we need to be made aware of.
Thanks
